Well, I am headed under the knife tomorrow. This ole eye ball is just not working anymore, so they cut the lens out of the eye, flush it down the can, then put a new one in, no problem.;) I will have bionics!!!

Going to be out of commission for a bit, you boys and ladies be good, RT1 will be back in a few and actually be able to see the board again out of two eyes.:eek: Who knows what else the Doc might find lurking behind this old eyeball.

    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
